Yes - IT IS A FACT.
If I want a CD I walk to Grand Army Plaza and get one from the Brooklyn Public
Library.

Absolutely they do. It is the FOUNDING premise of copyright law in the US.
Do you always blabber off at the mouth without any knowledge, or before making
any effort at research? Is it always like this with you. Or is it just this
topic which makes you a little crazy and ignorant.

Your completely wrong. This is the first case where the Court has explicitely said
that Fair Use is defined as the tool protects the 1st, 4, 5th ammenndments of the
Bill of Rights.
Since these rights are guaranteed the public, they supercede copyright, and NOW it
becomes CLEAR that an application DMCA is unconstitutional if it inhibits the private
ownership of computers and media.
It confirms, DRM IS THEFT. and it CONFIRMS, We are the STAKEHOLDERS in Copyright.
Now go troll the ignorant where you'll have more success...
